Positive Risks

     One of the most important rules for me in life is that people need to take positive risks. If people do not take risks, they will not get very far in life. One of my favorite quotes is, "you miss 100% of the shots you don't take". I feel this is true for many reasons. One of the reasons is the current job field. When going to school for a job, individuals need to risk years of training to earn a degree. If they do not earn a degree in college, their job field is very slim. By taking the risk of attending college, a person increases their odds of getting a better paying and more interesting job. Another example of taking possitive risks includes making freinds. When talking to people, if a person does not take risks, they will not get anywhere in a freindship. But, if that person takes a possitive risk, they could meet their new best freind, or possibly their future spouse. A person never will know what might happen if they do not take possitive risks.
